This footage came in the mail today. Bob sent it on the 12th and no word from him since. I am worried. 'Bel, As far as I know I'm still on Ganymede. The laptop is safe, though I can't say the same for myself. Please, make sure Will sees this. I'm counting on you. ~Bob

Will, if you see this, please contact me! http://bobsamuels-innerworld.blogspot.com

And even with a fairly narrow definition, the notion of "independent film" this year can reasonably include the unlikely box office successes "Paranormal Activity" and "District 9" and the critical darling and likely Oscar contender "The Hurt Locker" alongside more conventionally indie-ish Sundance breakouts such as "(500) Days of Summer" and "Precious: Based on the Novel 'Push' by Sapphire."

LG15: Outbreak - Coming January 11, 2010 is the second trailer for LG15: Outbreak.

Transcript:

(A dark screen with specks of floating light are shown.)Crystal: (voice-over) Imagine spending every waking moment of your life doing something you hated. Living a way you despised. Trapped in an endless montage of going from one place to another. Hiding from ghosts of bad memories and broken promises. Running and running, until there is no place else to go. And all you're left with is a room full of Shadows and reminders of the mistakes you've made. And then... Imagine you get the chance to start over.(The screen blurs to a gray smudge and the words "...IT'S TIME." appear on screen. Shots of Crystal, Mason, and Will, along with interior and exterior shots of buildings flash on screen and the voice-over continues.)Crystal: (voice-over) To be honest, I have no idea what I've gotten myself into. (Closeup of a hand grapping the bottom of what that person is sitting on.) But what I do know (An exterior shot of a building is quickly flashed, then the screen goes black.) is that everything's about to change.Text: This January, the web show that started a revolutionreturns to the web for a new season.An 8-Week Interactive Thrill Ride01.11.10

For the third year running, Scott Kirsner (Fans, Friends, & Followers, CinemaTech), Woody Benson ( Prism VentureWorks) and Lance Weiler (founder of the WorkBook Project, story architect) sat down to discuss the year in tech and entertainment.

The new model, pioneered by Topspin Media, will be the multi-tiered, staggered release. Artists will offer free, full streams and selected downloads early to the curious and the devoted, building their fanbase as they grow.

The secret to their success? Treat the Internet run like a TV or movie release, which often loses money on its on-screen debut, but can make healthy profits when issued on DVD or Blu-ray and later sold for reruns on cable or overseas.

Merry Christmas from all of us here at LG15Today. This has been an interesting year for the Breeinverse, full of ups and downs and a few diagonals, yet through it all, the community rolls on. Hopefully, everyone will have a joyous holiday, and we will all be back together again in 2010, which according to the movie is when we make contact, so we might actually find out if Bree really is an alien or some other type of creature.

Furthermore, on this date three years ago, Daniel uploaded Christmas Surprise, which truly was a surprise in that not many fans were expecting a video on Christmas day. This video would prove very significant, in that many fans point to it as the unofficial end of the first part of season one.

The Season finale of SafetyGeeks:SVI is here. All the mysteries solved, all will be revealed, there will be blood...and cucumber fondling. Warning, if the phrase 'cucumber fondling' did not tip you off, SafetyGeeks is intended for mature audiences and may not be suitable for small children, the Amish, or offices with Internet monitoring software.

In addition, it is recommended that one not stare at Brittney Powell for too long as the mind tends to fixate, which leads to naughty googling. Enjoy the season finale. Dave and Tom will return in Dave and Tom versus the World Crime League.

Paul decides to see what all this "vlogging" is really all about. He talks about a serious glitch within YouTube which is costing many creators their views by freezing the counters at 300 and calls out the site for its lack of response to this many months old problem. He also reviews a couple YouTube channels.

The lovely and very talented, Taryn Southern is planning another live show on Ustream tonight at 10pm Eastern, 7pm Pacific. In addition, to discussing last minute Christmas gift ideas, she will be showing off her new blond locks. Below is an artist rendition of what she may look like. Once again the show starts at 10 Eastern, 7 Pacific on Ustream.

December 20th, the season 3 episode, In the Bedroom reached 30 million views on Youtube, gaining 10 million views in less than 5 months. At a time when a successful web series episode gains fifty thousand views total the fact that In the Bedroom continues to draw roughly eighty thousand a day, more than a year after it first aired is remarkable. Furthermore, the video is poised to break into YouTube's all time top 100 category.

Hope everyone's holiday season is going well! I just thought that I should come forward and let you all now about some unfortunate news. Because of a personal reasons involving my lead actress, she has asked if we could push off the rest of the production for a little while as she straightens things out. Out of respect for her, I have pushed off the rest of the production until things are resolved. This means that The Order Files will not be released until some time after the anticipated date. I greatly apologize for not being able to follow through with my promise. But, I want you all to know that once things are straightened out, shooting will commence again.

Again, I want to greatly apologize for this problem. I hope that you all enjoy LG15: Outbreak when it premiers in just a few short weeks. I will be sure to make another announcement when everything is back in order. Thank you.
